Summer Supper Series
Our final installment of our Summer Supper Series is scheduled for Saturday from 5pm to 7pm at Fox Elementary's playground. We will be keeping an eye on the weather for the remainder of this week and will send out an email on Friday to let you know if we will need to reschedule. If we do get rained out, we're hoping to meet on Sunday after our regular service, just as we would with Vespers. So keep an eye on your email for updates! We will also post an update to the City Church Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/City-Church-of-Richmond/185387518180767)
Mercy Fund -- Sunday
As this week's service falls on the last Sunday of the month, we will be taking contributions to our Mercy Fund. The Mercy Fund is kept separate from our regular budget and is used to provide financial support to members of our congregation and community who are in need. Please prayerfully consider what you might be willing to contribute.
